IHSH-189-BRN - 17oz Duck CPO Work Shirt - "The UnTucked" - Brown
-
For all those considering this shirt, don't sleep on it. The 17 oz duck fabric is amazing. I own the western version (I'm sure most of you know this by my many posts) of this shirt, and It's so hard wearing.
1. The hem doesn't roll upward like twill weaves.
2. the fabric doesn't stretch or even soften that much, and it hot washes and hot dries crispy with little to no shrinkage.
3. The hand pockets sit nice and flush and are forgotten about when not in use. They don't feel bulky or droopy at any point.
4. This fabric has a nicer hand and heft than any Carhartt or workwear fabric I've felt, and the cut is great for a wide range of uses.Thank you for visiting Iron Heart Minnesota.

But is it… Minnesota nice?

@jordanscollected Where do we send your commission check? Seriously though, all your points kind of make it a must have. I still have too many kidneys so…

I am weak… I’ve always wanted one of these…
Ditto on both points. Got an XL for layering under [emoji51]

but patience and forbearance are for chumps.
So true. Delayed gratification is overrated.

I got mine right away. No way I was missing this for a second time.

@SKT:
I have (almost) talked myself down by using my cordura-253 as a kinda/sorta similar piece.
Good move. I always wanted that shirt, partially because I failed to pick up the 189 the first time around. Somehow I never got it, even when it hit the Outlet. Shame because I love me a bit of cordura.

Same, same and same.

Had to have it. Fingers crossed for matching 816 restock soon.

Had to wear my 189 today to join the chatter around its restocking. Glorious shirt…the plusses @jordanscollected makes are accurate and visualize some of its subtle highlights
I know it doesn’t llok cool enough to merit an overshirt but by 7 pm it feels quite cool on the bike.

Anyone sizing down on this one? I usually take XL but since it doesn’t taper much in the body, I’m thinking Large might be the move
Depends how you want to wear it.
It’s a pretty standard work shirt cut, but the dims are a touch larger than normal. The way I figure it, size down for how you normally wear a work shirt, but go tts for layering. It is a CPO and is intended to be worn over layers (but doesn’t have to be).

I’m in California where it rarely gets cold. The most layering I do is a T shirt underneath. For the really cold days I have some lined jackets that I pull out.
